I used to work at a company that sourced Keurig stations for our coffee. I think we used Green Mountain coffees. Stuff was surprisingly good....and it was free to boot!Not really. I love my Keurig... recommendations:
The free part might have made it taste better.
I work in the industrial section of Portland that's near the Portland Airport. There is a Coffee factory that roasts and grinds coffee. When the winds blow right... What a pleasant smell!I used to work at a company that sourced Keurig stations for our coffee. I think we used Green Mountain coffees. Stuff was surprisingly good....and it was free to boot!

To each his own. Keurig is great for work: no mess, no waste, super fast and tastes surprisingly good for prepackaged.Not really. I love my Keurig... recommendations:
(You jes caint beat fresh ground coffee tho)
I love coffee, but more so I love the smell of roasted beans while they are being ground. Its so damn amazing.
I am somewhat of a coffee lover/aficionado. To me, coffee perfection is a double-shot espresso or professionally made cappuccino. It has to be really hot and it has to be really bold. Making either of those at home is really complicated unless you have both ample time to spare and a good chunk of change for a near-pro/pro expresso maker.
The Keurig does provide with both the heat and the boldness that it's difficult to replicate on your standard brewer (especially the heat control). So it's kind of halfway there. The brewing is obviously not as pressurized as a real espresso machine (noticeable), and there's obviously no milk foaming device, so cappuccino is out of the question. When I want the real deal, I normally have to head out to Starbucks and the like.
Now, if you want to try something different, and you're near San Francisco, CA or Brooklyn, NY head out to Blue Bottle Coffee. The coffee is good, but the devices they use to drip the coffee are a must see.
About 6 blocks away from the main campus where I attended college was the DeCoty Coffee Company. Back then, they supplied alot of mediocre coffee to convenience stores and ins utions...including the college cafes and snackbars. When they were roasting, the smell would wrap around the campus like a scarf. It was pretty amazing....but the coffee just wasn't that great. Nowdays, they've gotten into the premium game a bit, I've noticed. Might have to give them a spin after I run through the Indonesian coffee I just ordered. I see DeCoty offers it as well. Hmmm...

Cappuccino = girly coffee.
LOL someone needs to swing at that softball about being a coffee lover/afficinado and heading out to Starbucks.
Cappuccino = girly coffee.
It's just a double-espresso with foamy milk... normally too strong for the ladies...
Took an Alaskan cruise a couple years ago and had a Keurig in our suite. Loved that thing. Nothing beat starting out my mornings by firing up the Keurig and enjoying a hot cup out on the balcony with the Alaskan scenery right there in front of you.
Manny with the throwdown!
What's wrong about it?
Out of the chains you can purchase ready-made gourmet coffee, Starbucks is at the top of the list, IMO.
As someone who has a Starbucks card in their wallet and gets far too much coffee there I have to say they have burned my god damn too much for me to give them too much credit. There's a Starbucks right behind where I work and they are on the ball but if I go elsewhere its almost always ed.
Mostly I was just yanking your chain though.
Oh I can beat it:
starting out my mornings by firing up the Keurig and enjoying a hot cup out on the balcony with the Alaskan scenery right there in front of you while getting a blowjob.
GFY too, Manny.
Yep. You win.
A testament to the broad appeal and excellence of coffee. Girls like it too, and real men even like the girly coffee. Me, I like it every which way.Cappuccino = girly coffee.
Yeah, I've heard that about you.
Well, it's true.
*French laugh*
I think it depends on the place. Around here, for example, I have a terrible time finding a Donkin' Donuts that will prepare a proper cappuccino, and I'm 99% sure they just punch the button on a machine, but I always end up with a latte, which is not what I ordered.As someone who has a Starbucks card in their wallet and gets far too much coffee there I have to say they have burned my god damn too much for me to give them too much credit.
